The G method for heterogeneous anisotropic diffusion on general meshes

چکیده
In the present work we introduce a new family of cell-centered Finite Volume schemes for anisotropic and heterogeneous diffusion operators inspired by the MPFA L method. A very general framework for the convergence study of finite volume methods is provided and then used to establish the convergence of the new method. Fairly general meshes are covered and a computable sufficient criterion for coercivity is provided. In order to guarantee consistency in the presence of heterogeneous diffusivity, we introduce a non-standard test space in H 0 (Ω) and prove its density. Thorough assessment on a set of anisotropic heterogeneous problems as well as a comparison with classical multi-point Finite Volume methods is provided.

A Virtual Volume Method for Heterogeneous and Anisotropic Diffusion-reaction Problems on General Meshes
Starting from the recently introduced virtual element method, we construct new diffusion fluxes in two and three dimensions that give birth to symmetric, unconditionally coercive finite volume like schemes for the discretization of heterogeneous and anisotropic diffusion-reaction problems on general, possibly nonconforming meshes. Convergence of the approximate solutions is proved for general t...
متن کاملA linearity-preserving cell-centered scheme for the heterogeneous and anisotropic diffusion equations on general meshes
In this paper a finite volume scheme for the heterogeneous and anisotropic diffusion equations is proposed on general, possibly nonconforming meshes. This scheme has both cell-centered unknowns and vertex unknowns. The vertex unknowns are treated as intermediate ones and are expressed as a linear weighted combination of the surrounding cell-centered unknowns, which reduces the scheme to a compl...
متن کاملDiscretisation of heterogeneous and anisotropic diffusion problems on general non-conforming meshes SUSHI: a scheme using stabilisation and hybrid interfaces
A discretisation scheme for heterogeneous anisotropic diffusion problems on general meshes is developed and studied. The unknowns of this scheme are the values at the centre of the control volumes and at some internal interfaces which may for instance be chosen at the diffusion tensor discontinuities. The scheme is therefore completely cell centred if no edge unknown is kept. It is shown to be ...

Abstract: A discretization of heterogeneous and anisotropic diffusion problems on general nonconforming meshes is developed and studied. The unknowns of this scheme are the values at the center of the control volumes and at some internal interfaces, chosen because of some irregularity of the diffusion tensor. If the tensor is regular enough, the values on the interfaces may be deduced from the ...
